At first glance, nice work. But looks like 0-day doesn't like it that
much, so I'll wait for the next version to review it properly.

One nit I did notice:

Put stuff like this in a local .h file, don't pollute the include/linux/
files for things that you do not want any other part of the kernel to
call.

Shouldn't "struct device_driver *" be a constant pointer?

But really, why is this a "raw" device_driver pointer and not a pointer
to the driver type for your bus?

Oh heck, let's point out the other issues as I'm already here...

Shouldn't this file be "bus.c" as you are creating a kunit bus?

"basic bus/driver implementation", not device, right?

A static device as a bus? This feels wrong, what is it for? And where
does this live? If you _REALLY_ want a single device for the root of
your bus (which is a good idea), then make it a dynamic variable (as it
is reference counted), NOT a static struct device which should not be
done if at all possible.

Wait, why isn't your "kunit" device above a struct kunit_device
structure? Why is it ok to be a "raw" struct device (hint, that's
almost never a good idea.)

container_of_const()? And to use that properly, why not make this a #define?

I don't understand, what are you trying to match here?

Ah, so this is the match function to pass above? If so, why do you need
it at all?

This is almost always a sign that something is wrong with the api.

Ick, the cast is odd, are you sure you need it? Why would you return a
struct device and not a kunit_device() anyway?

Again, why this type, why not use the real type you have?
